[Zack]

Mike Hussey has decided to retire from cricket to spend more time with his family. Hussey will play his final test in Sydney. He will play in the ODI series and he will play for Western Australia and the Scorchers. Khawaja is set to be his replacement in the test team.

Very sad to hear of Hussey's retirement, he is retiring in peak form. No else will have the cricket brain of 'Mr Cricket'. All of my favourite players are retiring.

I'm not really sure what to make of it, I have mixed feeelings on him . It was less expected than Greig's death!

I'm really curious as to why he's chosen to retire?

Could be a decision with the family in mind, going to be tough to replace with our thin batting stocks being thin atm. Thought he would've went on to the Ashes but it's also nice to see champion players go out on top of their game.
